Lent Liturgy

A possible structure for The Gathering of the Community:

1. Suggested greeting:

Grace and peace to you from God.God fill you with truth and joy.

2. Hymn

3. Confession and Absolution

4. Collect of the Day

Alternatively, the first hymn could be after the Confession and Absolution. Other penitential elements could be included (from, for example, the options on NZPB pages 405-407). “Glory to God in the highest” is traditionally not used in Lent.
